My mistake, honestly forgot all about deleting that from the notepad.

Sanzabar,

Fantastic writeups so far guys, I'm really impressed with the tech and the performance gains you've both seen.
What really interests me most, besides the forgiveness, is the higher ballflight. Low shots with my scoring irons have really hurt me over my rounds, so to hear that the ballflight's allowing you to hold more greens has me excited.
Rusty, you mentioned a more penetrating ballflight with the C200s - since you were a sweeper before, were your old GI irons giving you more of a lazy ballflight with your swing? I also tend to hit a bit fat, and can't say I've ever hit an iron with a penetrating ballflight, some of which is my slower swing speed (92-93mph with driver) that I'm working on improving. Definitely interested to hear your thoughts on that.
Love that they have gone from "control" to "crossover" in their FCD categories. Makes tons and tons more sense.

Deuce, you and I share the same 'cap. You said you have already seen major distance gains, have you seen a scoring drop as well now that you're getting better ballflight into those greens? Also, you mentioned how well the clubs feel, which is something I love about the D100s - can you feel the weight of the clubhead on your backswing and transition to your downswing, or do you lose it at any point?

These are right up your alley.
The distance gains are legit, there is no getting around it.
For me the scoring irons are unbelievably impressive. In a season where a swing flaw has really done its number on my golf game these irons have provided some hope over the last few months.
I struggled all year elevating the ball even with the scoring irons. 7I used to be my bread and butter. I still remember getting to the range early with JB and getting swings in with these. The ball just soared off of the face. No more lines drives throughout the bag. Even the low grooves get the ball in the air. The head with the graphite shafts just make it simple.
As cliche as it sounds these things are just high and straight. Oh and if you are pondering a set please get the AW. Club is freaking deadly
Well as you know im a big fan of the 545s across the board. But i think these are superior to those in the biggest 3 needs for me.I really like what I'm hearing about the scoring irons in this set. In a lot of the distance oriented irons I've tried, these have always been the parts of the set I liked the least. If I can get some added distance and short irons that perform like you guys are saying, that sounds fantastic to me.
441, how would you compare these to the 545?
Russ, I have shot my best round ever with these clubs, but I have not seen my handicap drop much ... mostly because of other issues with my game. I think I'm headed in the right direction because I feel much more confident when I have these irons in my hands. Lately I've been doing things that I had never done before ... like fly a 9i from ~120 out with a surlyn ball (W/S 50 Elite) and have it land and back up six inches.Deuce, you and I share the same 'cap.

1. Distance
2. Toe forgivess (as proven by the fact jb could hit 2 balls at the same time at the same target with minimal difference in distance.
3. Bottom grooves forgivess- i thought the 545s excelled here but the C200 do as well and even more. The higher ball flights on the thin misses is a welcome site.
Yeah since my swing was consistently bad all year i can do a apples to apples comparison and they were about a half club longer for me.Longer than the 545 is impressive, as those clubs have been quite long for me. If Wilson can get these into people's hands, it sounds like these could be a real winner for them.
Good reviews guys, hopefully Wilson can marry the product with a good marketing campaign to gain some traction with this release.
This was discussed a lot at Staff Proto. I honestly think they are more excited about this line than any other line before. When Vrska is that excited over something, you know it's a winner. I expect to see these in a lot more stores than normal.
Yes sir. THPers got to have direct impact and voice in that decision in 2014 at the THP Event.
I will be over the moon if these land in GolfSmith - not only will I be able to have a true head to head comparison with my D100s to see distance and dispersion, I also have at least $200 in gift certs I can potentially use towards these.

It's a bit of a hike, but I believe Golfer's Warehouse in Braintree had the Wilson line when I was there last. Though that doesn't help w/ your gift cards.
Now that we're openly talking about these irons. Looking on their website I see a new model in the distance category as well "DEFY". Makes me wonder what's new in the feel side of the line.
I took a couple passes with these last fall at a local gathering. Distance is certainly there, I was seeing a very straight ball that seemed to penetrate very well. First couple balls I incorrectly thought it I was seeing ballooning. With those few swings I was seeing a club longer with a higher trajectory. Long high and straight, sounds like a winning combination for any golfer. Aesthetically I thought they were a little busy for my eye, but that's all a preference issue.
If i recall they carried the d100 line in their stores right so man i hope they have these...if those its a steal at the price u will getI will be over the moon if these land in GolfSmith - not only will I be able to have a true head to head comparison with my D100s to see distance and dispersion, I also have at least $200 in gift certs I can potentially use towards these.
